The Lamp of ADONAI
“The human spirit is a lamp of ADONAI;
It searches one’s inmost being.”
-Proverbs 20:27
Paul once said, “Who knows the inner workings of a person except the person’s own spirit inside him?”(1 Cor 2:11a) This is true of every person who hassurrendered all of himself to the LORD because only those who belong to GOD aretruly alive in their spirit.
The LORD YESHUA once said, “Unless a person is born again from above, he cannot see the kingdom of GOD” (John 3:3). Just like Adam, he did not become a livingsoul until GOD breath into his nostrils the breathe of life. Only GOD can give spiritual life. All other beings are “nephesh,” – Hebrew fora breathing creature. Adam was aspiritual being able to communicate, understand and fellowship with GOD. In the same manner, a born again person is aspiritual being endowed with spiritual faculties that perceive and communicatethe things of GOD because he has been transformed into GOD’s kind by the bloodof YESHUA shed on the cross at Calvary. He is indwelt by the HOLY SPIRIT and isintimately the Temple of GOD.
The human spirit, therefore, is GOD’s searchlight illuminating the inner workings of man so that his old flesh may be renewed andtransformed into the image of CHRIST as originally ordained from the beginning. The human spirit, prompted by the HOLY SPIRIT,creates hunger within the soul of man, causing him to desire for the things ofGOD especially the Word, and keen to the instruction of the HOLY SPIRIT. The spirit enables the man to discern thework of GOD around him, attracting him to join in the work of redemption. Slowly but surely, he becomes an extension ofGOD’s hands and feet and speaks as GOD’s effective witness.
The new man is the image of CHRIST. Nothing is impossible to him!
